Verse
D#m C#
Alone again, alone again
D#m C#
I'm in the twilight zone again
D#m C#
Another lonely star-crossed night
B A#
Shivered to the bone again
[Verse 2]
D#m C#
They never stay, they always leave
D#m C#
I wear my heart upon my sleeve
D#m C#
I won't say what I don't believe
B A#
I turn another heart to stone again
[Chorus]
G#m
Alone again, aah
A#
Can't stop the rain
G#m
Alone again
A#
Put out the flame
[Verse 3]
D#m C#
Betrayed again, unmade again
D#m C#
Out of the sun, into the shade again
D#m C#
The silent room, the unsung tune
B A#
All the old games must be played again
[Verse 4]
D#m C#
And all the words we could not say
D#m C#
And all the nights and all the days
D#m C#
We quarreled in the same old ways
B A#
And all the same mistakes were made again
[Chorus]
G#m
Alone again, ooh
A#
Despair and pain
G#m
Alone again
A#
Can't break the chain

Alone again

Can't break the chain
[Verse 5]
D#m C#
Alone again, alone again
D#m C#
To sit beside the silent phone again
D#m C#
And all the words we spoke were knives
B A#
And so I'm here on my own again
[Verse 6]
D#m C#
The days are dark and drowned in tears
D#m C#
I know the game, the rules are clear
D#m C#
I walk alone through all my years
B A#
I know you never will come home again
[Chorus]
A#m
Alone again
C
Shot through the heart
A#m
Alone again
C
Tear me apart!
